I have four sons, and one of them being on the moderate autism spectrum, does not do well with cold or with pictures. We met Mackenzie through a friend and she did NOT disappoint. The way she was able to bring out the personalities of all my boys, and make my whole family, smile genuine smiles, was amazing. She was able to make my son with special needs smile so beautifully.

She wants your photos to come out top tier. Her eye for details and even your post-photoshoot interview are to ensure that you are 100% pleased with your photos and entire experience.
She is, no doubt, one of the top photographer professionals I have come across.

Amazing! She does such a great job getting my kids to smile and look the right direction! My daughters school photo was terrible and thanks to MacKenzie, I have a great picture of her!

We had such a wonderful experience working with Mackenzie for our extended family photo session!

She was extremely professional, patient, and understanding, especially when working with our autistic 7-year-old with physical and developmental delays. We also have a rambunctious 3-year-old and a very attached 2-year-old. Mackenzie went above and beyond to accommodate his needs, working through with him while he was having a very hard time with overstimulation, creating a relaxed and comfortable environment that allowed our son to feel at ease. Despite the challenges of three energetic boys, multiple meltdowns, and lots of running around, she managed to capture beautiful, authentic photos that we’ll cherish forever.

The process of selecting our photos was awesome. Mackenzie provided a detailed and customizable selection experience, guiding us through all the options with patience and making sure we ended up with exactly what we wanted.

Mackenzie’s skill and warm approach made the entire process enjoyable, and we’re so grateful for her flexibility and kindness. We couldn’t be happier with the final results. Highly recommend!

We worked with MacKenzie for our family photos this year and it was an absolute dream. It’s usually such a challenge to even take one decent photo with my three young kiddos, and she got sooo many good shots! I am so so happy with the results, we will definitely hire her again next time!

The location was beautiful! We had 11 people, and we had so much fun. The pictures turned out perfect.

Mackenzie has taken all my kids’ senior photos and while our eldest was home from college (for only two weeks) this summer, Mackenzie scheduled time for us to shoot a family session. When the weather didn’t cooperate, she worked with us to reschedule for a beautiful morning in our tight time frame. She made sure to incorporate our ideas and designed a series of photos that captures who we are as a family. We love her! Consider booking a family session with her before your seniors head off to school next year. She’s the best!

2024: had ALL the family in town & got pictures with everyone. They are amazing! ❤️❤️❤️
2023 Update: she has now done my maternity, little ones newborn & multiple sessions as a milestone package. Love every single photo!! It’s always so hard to pick a favorite! It’s so fun to see how much he has changed over the year!
I came up with the crazy idea to want mommy, mommy & me photos & Mackenzie captured that idea for me! She’s done couple photos for us before & I KNEW I wanted her again for these! So glad I did, they came out perfect!

What a pleasure to work with!!! I was so nervous about our first family photo shoot and just really wanted to get at least one good picture. Well; I had lots to choose from! With a 2yr old daughter I was so anxious, but MacKenzie can really make the kids smile! My daughter loved her from the start. We have found our photographer for life. Thank you!

I worked with MacKenzie twice and every time she was professional, thorough and very kind. Her approach was very gentle and my 3yo daughter felt super comfortable with her. MacKenzie picked the most beautiful spot for our Fall mini session and was prepared, helped navigate my family and it was so hard to pick the best photos.
I definitely recommend her services, share my amazing experience everywhere I go! And price was totally reasonable! 💕🎉

Mackenzie was awesome! She made our family session so fun and super easy. I have two teenage boys that dread photo sessions 😆. The location was perfect and I love the photos, they turned out gorgeous! Thanks Mackenzie for capturing these memories we will cherish forever!

MacKenzie took our family photos. She was able to work efficiently and knew what poses to photograph us in. She was able to quickly help us narrow down pictures to choose. There was a quick turnaround time between taking the pictures and our choosing photos to purchase. The pictures turned out great.

We recently did graffiti art family photos downtown with MacKenzie. She took lots of time to work with my kids and made it a great experience for them. Teenagers hate to smile, she would crack jokes and capture them every time. Super fun experience!! Already booked out next session!

This is my third photo session with MacKenzie. We have went to a different location each time. Each place has been unique and has beautiful background and scenery for the pictures. She takes great pictures. She gives direction on posing and making sure your face and body will look awesome. It’s nice that she allows outfit changes. Afterwards she walked us thru the process of selecting the photos. She is very helpful when we asked for her input to help make the decisions. Her packages are have a-lot of choices and are affordable. Thanks for taking gorgeous pictures of all 3 of my kids.
